Girl vs Dog

What is the difference between a girl and a dog? Well....you can always ask Katherine.

I went to class on Thursday, and Katherine tagged along and spent the morning in day care. On our way home, after she inhaled a Hi-C from McDonalds, she let me know she needed to use the bathroom. Fortunately, we were only about 5 minutes from home, so I knew she would be able to hold it that long. So I told her, "Katherine, we are just a few minutes from home, it won't be much longer." To that, she replied, "But Mom, I just can't wait." So I suggested, "Well, I can pull over and you can go potty in the grass."

Her reaction was priceless - you would have thought I suggested something offensive by the tone of her voice.

"Mom, I am NOT a dog!" (her look was fierce and incredibly serious)

"What do you mean Katherine? I know you're not a dog."

"Dogs go potty in the grass, NOT little girls! And I am a little girl, NOT a dog!"

"Oh...so you want to wait then?"

"Yes."

Then I overheard her talking the doll that she brought along for the car ride..."I don't go potty in the grass. That is so gross..."

SUCH a girly girl :)
